By IRENE SEELY The Klamath County Museum Board is happy to announce that the new curator, Ben Swartz, will arrive soon to take over the va cancy left by Roy Carlson. He is expected on February 1. Along with a new curator, the museum has some new items of interest in the exhibit line. One new display is the antique show col lection belonging to Mr. and Mrs John Hein of 1736 Ivory. It is a beautiful, and very in teresting exhibit since the shoes come from all over the world, and are made of many materials. There are beer steins from Ger many made of both pottery and of glass that hold a quart or .more. There are exquisite and dainty slippers from France, sturdy Droques from England, and souve nirs. from many of our own slates. Among the most interesting is a beaded boot designed to hang from the bedpost or the wall and in tended to hold a pocket watch safely through the night while the owner slept. Mrs. Hem is the chief collector. but Mr. Hein shares her interest. Mrs. Hein began the collection by a gift from her grandmother when sho was very young, and Mr. Hein renewed her interest by tho gilt ol a trench piece. Since then, the Hcins have visited manv anlinue shops up and down the coast and their collection has grown in size aim inierest. For those people interested in antiques, Mrs. Hein has a word of warning. Many reproductions are on the market, especially of the glass pieces, and the buyer should beware of them. In the collector's case, the in sect collections of Dwight and Toby Schuh, 4030 Shasta Way, are most unusual. There is a grass hopper that must be seen to be behoved, and a black beetle that is literally big enough to choke a cow. 'loby took the grand cham pionship ribbon at the Oregon State Fair on one of his insect collec tions. The museum was also fortunate tc receive some very interesting material from the Klamath Indian Agency. A copy of the Final Reg ister of the Klamath Reservation, together with copies of the Treaty of 18B4 and the liquidation of the reservation will add to the inter est of researchers into the history of Klamath County. The museuum is fortunate to own copies of three rare books on the Modoc War, as well as some very interesting his tories of the county. Attendance at the museum in creased in January, both in regu lar attendance and in the number of groups that have asked for con ducted tours. This year's allocations to United Fund agencies were set at Mon day's meeting of the fund's execu tive committee, which adopted a report submitted by Margaret Sheridan. Mrs. Sheridan spoke as chair man of the admittance, budget and quota committee; which had worked last summer to bring a re quested total of allocations from $162,008 to $150,000. This month, the committee worked again to pare these allocations by $24,500. approximately the amount by which the drive fell short of the $150,000 goal. By cutting the allocation to to tal man" disease research by $800, reducing allocations for administra tion and campaign to the amount actually spent in ld58, and eliminat ing a $1,000 reserve for the Com munity Council of Klamath Coun ty, the committee was able to ar rive at, a distribution of funds whereby no lo c a I organization would have' an allocation smaller than the sum it .actually received in 1958. ' The allocations: in whole dollars. for 1959 are as follows? With 1958 payments in parentheses: Boy Scouts $13,157 ($13,089), Camp Fire Girls $10,816 IS10.765). Girl Scouts $9,512 ($9.4801.
